Lyrics
Look both ways and back again Don't forget to make your bed Don't wash the whites with the reds That's what mama said She taught me 'bout make up Said wine was just for grown ups There's no shame in being wrong You just sing your song Chorus~ But don't miss church on Sunday And you'll find a good man one day Don't you dare take love for granted That's what mama said~ Drive safe and don't stay out too late Don't forget to pay that bill What about your sisters Can't you all sit still Some days you gotta let it be And try to love your enemies It's ok to feel blue I've felt that way too Chorus x 2 Look both ways and back again Don't forget to make your bed Don't wash the whites with the reds That's what mama said.
